6 Reasons Operation Market Garden FAILED

Operation Market Garden failed because the tanks of XXX Corps did not reach the Paras in Arnhem in time. Many historians have argued that the British armoured column “let the side down”. But is this actually true? We reckon there are six reasons why the operation was a total disaster. It was a poor plan from the get-go, relying on a rate of advance that would outmatch the German invasion of France in 1940. Bad weather prevented the deployment of badly-needed reinforcements, and the terrain Guards Armoured were expected to traverse – a single road with impassable conditions on either side – significantly hampered the efforts of the tank crews. Poor intelligence also meant that the British column was not prepared for resistance from a retreating and desperate German Army. It was a combination of all these factors that caused Market Garden to unravel completely. Despite the complications, many acts of valour were carried out by both the airbourne and armoured divisions, including the legendary assault across the Waal by the US 82nd Airbourne. So, join us as we explore these six reasons why Operation Market Garden failed and decide for yourself whether XXX Corps could have done anymore.

In this film, Chris Copson and Paul Famojuro investigate six reasons why Operation Market Garden failed, and why we think there was nothing more the British armour could have done. A poorly thought-out plan alongside determined resistance from an increasingly desperate German Army made the task ahead almost impossible. On top of this, poor intelligence, difficult terrain and, in typical British fashion, bad weather all accounted for delay after delay in the execution of a plan with no wiggle room. Before any Paras set foot on a plane, or any tanks rumbled into the Netherlands, the Operation Market Garden was doomed to fail. This video features archive footage courtesy of British Pathé.
